[Verse 1]
Prepare in urgency to race
Casting off the weight that burdens me
I cannot dare to force the pace
Marathon for life the road I face

[Pre-Chorus]
Committed
Determined
My gaze is set on finishing

[Chorus]
I’m straining to extend the lead
As every evil chases me
One day, one hour, every step
I know
I know
I fix
My eyes
Ahead

[Verse 2]
Straining on to run without remorse
Casting off mistakes that came before
In my mind I see a hallowed door
Open arm embrace, I’m reaching for...
[Pre-Chorus]
Committed
Determined
My gaze is set on finishing

[Chorus]
I’m straining to extend the lead
As every evil chases me
One day, one hour, every step
I know
I know
I fix
My eyes
Ahead

[Verse 3]
Just like a breeze is passing me
My stammers, a distant memory
We cannot afford a glance to see
What’s gaining or what is history

[Pre-Chorus]
Unyielding
Unflinching
My gaze is set on finishing
[Chorus]
I’m straining to extend the lead
As every evil chases me
One day, one hour, every step
I know
I know
I fix
My eyes
Ahead
I’m straining to extend the lead
As every evil chases me
One day, one hour, every step
I know
I know
I fix
My eyes
Ahead
